Organic Fast Food Trends MY OPINION
I found this article in a database and then furthered my research by finding the other part of it online. It is about how organic fast food chains are becoming more popular. The article stated that the businesses use Eco-friendly materials and natural products for the food and equipment. Packaging is made from sugar and corn pulp. These resources are renewable and are easier to break-down than plastic is. The food comes from local and natural/organic farms. Places that deliver things like organic pizza drive Earth-friendly cars. The restaurants seem to be worthy of helping the environment. They also seem to have been started because of people wanting better food to nourish their bodies. The reason some of them were started was because people enjoyed fast food, but wanted it healthier. These restaurants don't send a vibe that says, "We are trying to be greener because it's trendy." The vibe they send is care and honesty.
